Hosker, 28, a former car sales manager from Blackburn in Lancashire, said Hopkins, 31, dismissed multi-millionaire Sir Alan as thick.

Hosker was booted out of The Apprentice on his record fourth consecutive appearance in the boardroom after his team failed their latest task.

Hopkins, 31, rounds on Hosker after blaming him for the departure of Paul Callaghan, 27, the man she was having a fling with.

Hosker said today: "Katie is a complete and utter snob. She was offended at my northernness and my working class background.

"She didn't think I had any right to be there. She sees me and Kristina (Grimes) as a threat. Kristina because she's Irish and me because I'm northern.

"Katie thinks Sir Alan is thick. She told me that in the car on the way back from a task. She doesn't rate Sir Alan, she's there to publicise herself.

"It's bizarre that she's still there. She doesn't want the job. She's an absolutely prime example of someone that doesn't want to work for Sir Alan.

"She just wants to use The Apprentice to enhance her business as a global brand consultant."

He said of Hopkins's fling: "I personally think she's been playing Paul, she's playing a game. She's completely and utterly taken the mickey out of him.

"She's an ex-Army intelligence officer so she knows how to manipulate people."

He said: "I think I'm the only person that actually went into the show to get the job.

"It surprises me that people come out and already have a business set up, like the wine bar (being opened by Natalie Wood), and the Zeppelin flights (Robert Laing).
